Lyrics
There's a road
In my mind
I've been watching
For a long time
It's the muddy Mississippi
And a yellow dandelion
From the Hudson River
To Missouri
In the mosses and red clay
I can feel the rhythm call me
From a thousand miles away
Let me go
Down to the river
Let me wander
Where the world is never mind
Let my heart know
That horizon
Like a mama's face
To a little child
I was born of the water
And washed onto shore
Been a waif to the seasons
Don't want to burden them no more
I'll keep moving for a life time
Be as quiet as the earth
When I listen to the water
I want to know what I'm worth
Let me go
Down to the river
Let me wander
Where the world is never mind
Let my heart know
That horizon
Like a mama's face
To a little child
I'm a season
I'm a country
I'm a loser and a queen
I'm forever
I'm nobody
In the wandering stream
